Hello lovelies, I must have sensed you were talking about gingers cause here I am in all my ginger gloriousness. Hoping to keep it that way, I’ll find out on Wednesday.
I was out of the blue diagnosed with Breast cancer as a result of a mamogram. I wanted HRT and my brilliant GP said let’s do a mamogram first, skipped in for it, the radiologist said have you any lumps, nope said I and went on my merry way, forgetting all about it until I got the call that I was being referred to a surgeon. It was 2cm and the minute I got that call, I put my hand straight on it.. I’ve lumpy boobs anyway so I hate checking them but would in the shower, my GP had checked them 6 months previously. Anyway I had surgery four weeks ago today, just a lumpectomy and had a sentinel lymph node removed to check it. All margins and lymph nodes are clear and I’m feeling much better now. Chemo depends on Oncotype result, it’s sent to America and takes a while to come back, but other than that it will be radiation for 4 weeks and hormone suppressors for 5/7 years.
I’m telling you all this because it’s so important that you check check check and go for mammograms when you are called or even have one privately, they aren’t very expensive didn’t notice or feel mine and it was there so please mind yourselves.
Back to the business at hand, I’ve been referring people to the podcast and they are coming back to me saying the wouldn’t convict on what they heard, I’ve had to tell them that what they heard isn’t even a minute fraction of what the jury have heard. It’s scary that people think this, I know they haven’t followed and discussed it daily like we have here, but still!
, im so glad to have made my way back to my tribe, I’ve missed you all.
